    I'm sorry....Straw cannot be the best this organization has to throw out there on a regular basis in CF. This is a joke.

    If Straw isn’t going to make that play he shouldn’t be playing. His biggest asset is routinely wasted.

    I thought Straw's calling cards were speed and defense?

    Speed and that's all folks!

    Is it too early to bring out Pedro Leon?

    I wish he was average. I'd take average.

    I'd settle for giving Chas & Siri a chance.

    Siri is tearing it up for the Skeeters and is a far superior defensive CF.

    I fear we can't afford to keep this game close... A's find ways to win these type of games.

    I'm speechless at Straw. I saw improvement for a bit, but apparently **** that.

    Put Chas out there for a game or 4.

    Everyone that is yelling at Siri, for Siri...tell us all how the 40-man roster will work? Not that it can't or won't, but I want to know what you would do.
